speaking of balancing yin and yang, it may be better to have some yang food with wine--strong yin-- for a good balance.
meat, for example, is extreme yang.
so it sounds reasonable to have meat and red wine together.
for vegetarians like me?
cheese is also strong yang.
fish is, compared to vegetables, yang, too.
of course, they are extreme yin and yang, so i would not recommend that you "balance out" this way all the time.
it's like a roller coaster!
another thing is, if you are completely vegetarian but love to drink, that could be a little too yin, which may weaken your health.
for the same reason, "vegetarian and have sweet tooth" could make you very weak overtime.
then again, meat and cheese have other health issues to be considered(high saturated fat, for instance), so even though it looks "more balanced (in an extreme way)", that does not mean it's healthy.
balance and moderation is the key : )
